Mr Umesh Malhotra, Founder & CEO, Hippocampus Learning Centres, explains how a shift in attitudes is critical to achieving a grassroots-level revolution in education. From choosing teachers who genuinely believe in the transformative power of their pedagogy, to parents who fully encourage the incremental efforts of their children - every stakeholder is sacrosanct in the process. Every child has the innate ability to learn and evolve as an individual. Watch as he explains how, once we shed our societal obsession with over-engineering curricula behind marks and other metrics, the radiant potential of our future can see the light of day. Co-founder and CEO of the Hippocampus Learning Centres, he has been instrumental in bringing grassroots-level change in our approach towards education. His approach is novel in crafting unique solutions for different socioeconomic classes to ensure that all children have the resources to become better and more engaged readers wherever they attend school.
